rainbow nation

South Africa is called the Rainbow Nation. This is because of its multicultural diversity, after different groups came here in previous centuries. ... Rainbow nation is a term coined by Archbishop Desmond Tutu to describe post-apartheid South Africa, after South Africa's first fully democratic election in 1994.
